Project
Automate the access doors to the shopping centre and all internal doors with a reliable, robust and low-maintenance solution.
Introductory propositions
The automatic doors had to be capable of supporting a high transit flow. The doors had to be in accordance with the design of the building, respecting its singularity. An indispensable condition was that the opening mechanisms should be robust and reliable, needing minimal maintenance.
The Manusa solution
Manusa designed, manufactured and installed in L'Illa Diagonal a great number of automatic doors of diverse types. The partitioning doors had to be integrated into the surrounding environment and it was necessary to provide a complete closure of the whole width of the corridors, some of them with several sliding doors. In certain areas automatic emergency –exit doors with panic-break out leaves were installed to facilitate the exit in case of emergencies. All the rest used fully transparent doors to provide illumination and comfort to users.
